Yes, absolutely! For every pose or group setting, we capture two to three shots to ensure everyone looks their best, just in case someone glances away or gets momentarily distracted. From these similar images, we select the best one and professionally edit it for white balance, color correction, and tonality, so your photos look beautiful and cohesive. These edited images are then delivered to you in a final collection.

For those wanting a more polished, magazine-style finish, we also offer Fine Art Edits, which involve extensive, detailed editing. This service is available for individual images at an additional cost

Our wedding photography package includes 6 hours of coverage, which is perfect for capturing all the essential parts of your wedding day. This timeframe allows us to document everything from the getting-ready moments (like the dress, shoes, bridesmaids in robes, and groom’s prep) to the ceremony and all the formalities at the reception. We’ll also capture special moments like the bride’s first look with the groom, father, or other family members.

Our goal is to tell the full story of your day, so we’ll include a few party shots as the DJ kicks off the evening. However, we find that 4-5 hours of dance floor photos can feel repetitive, and many guests prefer to enjoy the night without the camera after a while.

For most couples, six hours provides a complete and cohesive wedding album. If you’d like us to stay longer, we’re happy to offer additional hours for an extra fee.

Since we’re a small team focused on providing personal service, we only take on one wedding per day. From your engagement session or pre-wedding photos to your wedding day coverage, and even the final editing, we’re hands-on every step of the way. This approach ensures you receive our full attention and the best experience possible.

Here in Houston and the surrounding areas, wedding season is especially busy in the spring and fall due to the comfortable weather. Because of high demand, we typically book out dates a year in advance for these popular seasons. To secure your preferred date, we recommend reaching out as early as possible.

Hiring us is a straightforward process to ensure everything is clear and in writing. To officially secure your date, we require a signed agreement, a retainer payment, and a calendar invite to block off your date. Until all three steps are completed, we cannot guarantee your date is reserved.

It’s important to note that we operate on a first-come, first-served basis. While many couples express interest, we cannot hold dates without a signed agreement and payment. This way, you can rest assured that all agreements are transparent and there are no questions down the line.

While we don’t typically bring on a second photographer or videographer, we are highly efficient in leveraging technology and artificial intelligence to capture your wedding seamlessly. Many other photographers offer multiple photographers and/or videographers, which often comes with additional fees, or they may present an assistant as a second photographer. However, we take a different approach to keep things cost-effective.

For video, we use anywhere from 3 to 5 strategically placed cameras to capture multiple angles. For audio, we utilize multiple sources that capture both ambient sounds and direct audio. This setup ensures that you get crisp, clear sound during important moments, like the ceremony, while minimizing distractions from background noise, such as traffic or a crying child. When your friends and family cheer, we can blend in the ambient sound for a rich experience.

Our cameras are equipped with auto-follow and auto-focus capabilities, so whether you’re enjoying a simple first dance or an extravagant performance, we’ll ensure that every moment is beautifully captured.

For photography, we use two additional cameras with different lenses to get varied looks. Since we are both photographers and videographers, we assist each other throughout the day, effectively doing the work of about five people with just the two of us. This approach allows us to keep costs down while still providing the same quality and functionality you'd expect for capturing your wedding memories.

If you prefer to have an extra set of hands, we can bring in a second photographer or videographer at an additional fee.

With all of our equipment and technology, we have built-in redundancies. If a piece of equipment fails or gets misplaced, we can quickly adapt and continue working without missing a beat. Our goal is to ensure that we capture everything you want without having to come back and tell you we missed something. This commitment to efficiency means you can focus on enjoying your day while we take care of the rest!

We understand that emergencies can happen, and we are big on redundancies to ensure your wedding day goes smoothly. We have multiple sets of equipment as backups to safeguard against any technical issues. However, after the experiences of COVID, we realized that we also need a backup plan for ourselves.

To that end, we have teamed up with several talented local photographers and videographers here in the Houston area who have the same level of experience and commitment to quality. In the unlikely event that one of us gets sick, injured, or is unable to attend your wedding, we will arrange for a qualified replacement. This backup option is only utilized in cases where we are genuinely unable to be there ourselves.

We don’t double-book days, and we are the ones who will always attend your event. We are against sending strangers as wedding vendors, so we will only bring in a colleague if we are too sick to make it ourselves. You can rest easy knowing that your special day will be captured beautifully, no matter the circumstances.

We aim to keep our packages as simple as possible while still offering comprehensive coverage. We provide three all-inclusive packages—one for photography, one for video, and a third for engagement, bridal, post-wedding, or quinceañera sessions. By offering everything under one price for each package, we ensure that we can maintain the same level of service without cutting corners.

Our photography package includes all essential services, while the video package covers everything you need for high-quality video production. We keep it simple to ensure we deliver the best possible experience without compromising on quality.

While our packages are straightforward, we do offer additional options outside of these packages that you can add or remove based on your preferences. For example, you can opt for features like recording the ceremony in VR or adding a photo/video album. Please contact us for full details on these additional options.

Our approach is inspired by the idea that to achieve excellence, we need the right tools. Just as Da Vinci created the Mona Lisa using a variety of brushes and paints, if you limited him to just two brushes, the final painting would likely look very different—less nuanced and lacking in the rich detail that made it a masterpiece. Similarly, we believe in utilizing multiple pieces of equipment, audio sources, drones, and more to deliver the highest level of service. By combining all our services into one price, we can focus on what truly matters—capturing your special day beautifully.

Will you assist us in creating a photography timeline for our wedding day

Absolutely! We love to get involved in creating and refining the timeline for your wedding day. We often find that many couples overlook the photographers when planning, or they set timelines that aren't realistic for working effectively with us.

We aim to establish a timeline that considers potential delays and sets realistic expectations. For example, if we plan the "getting ready" pictures at 3 PM, the ceremony at 4 PM and the reception at 5 PM, any delays in hair and makeup could significantly impact our time for photography. If getting ready is shortened to just a few minutes, or if the ceremony is pushed back, it could leave little time for important family portraits after the ceremony.

By getting involved in your timeline, we can guide you on potential issues, suggest realistic timing, and always have a Plan B ready. This way, we can ensure that we capture all the special moments of your day without any stress!

Planning and experience are crucial in ensuring that we capture all the important moments of your wedding day professionally and efficiently. We work closely with you to understand your vision and create a detailed timeline, which helps us stay on track and avoid any delays.

During the event, we anticipate the next steps so that we’re always ready to capture those special moments as they unfold. Our experience allows us to be proactive, ensuring that we don’t miss any key events, whether it’s the emotional exchange of vows or the joyous celebration at the reception. With our meticulous approach, you can trust that every significant moment will be beautifully documented.

At JK Photography, we believe in maintaining a personal touch throughout the entire process. We will be there for you during the planning stages, capturing your vision and understanding your values. On the day of your event, we’ll be the ones behind the camera, ensuring every special moment is beautifully documented. After the event, we personally handle all the editing.

While outsourcing editing may seem cost-efficient, it often compromises quality. Many outsourced editors prioritize speed over detail, which can lead to missed emotional moments—like the father seeing his daughter in her wedding dress for the first time or the groom watching his bride walk down the aisle. These intimate experiences require a deep understanding of the day’s significance, and that’s something only we can provide.

Our approach may take a little longer because we focus on quality over quantity. We pay close attention to every detail and ensure a consistent level of excellence in our work. While the turnaround may be slower, the end result reflects our commitment to capturing and enhancing the emotional essence of your special day. At JK Photography, we are dedicated to delivering the highest quality, because your memories deserve nothing less.
